Liza (All the Clouds'll Roll Away)
Al Jolson
Words by Ira Gershwin and Gus Kahn
Music by George Gershwin
A # 9 hit in 1929 for Al Jolson
Originally from the Broadway show "Show Girl" where it was sung by Nick Lucas
and danced by Ruby Keeler.
It later was sung by Jolson, dubbing for Larry Parks, in the 1946 film "the Jolson
Story."
Liza, Liza, skies are gray
But if you smile on me, all the clouds will roll away.
Liza, Liza, don't delay
Come keep me company, and the clouds will roll away.
See the honey moon a-shinnig down
We could make a date with Parson Brown.
So, Liza, Liza name the day
When you'll belong to me, and the clouds will roll away.
